[My point is that we are indeed still making stuff here.]
 
My misunderstanding.  Thanks for pointing that out.
 
My blinders were on and I had in mind the instances where entire factories, including the production machines, had been moved overseas - those are the examples that the MSM tends to focus on.
 
I can see where you are correct.  The Japanese auto manufacturers who have established production facilities in the U.S., for example.  Those assembly line robots do require servicing.  
 
 
Have you seen "The Terminal".  It's a wonderful illustration of what can be accomplished when an individual makes the most of the opportunities that are available - instead of standing behind a glass door, pining away for what's on the other side.

No, I haven't seen it but I'll be sure to investigate the link. Thank you for your candor regarding the misunderstanding. That type of character - the display of integrity - is not seen often enough here.
